Tangrowth is pretty cool. I mean its no mew, but that art style is actually pretty nice.

Now that’s marketing genius lol. I had thought of putting a sharpie dot on the back of each so they couldn’t get a 10, except for 5 that would be graded 10s (you could grade and crack non 10s then dot them).

I feel like signing them is better because they still have more value than if someone has purposefully made it so others can’t get 10s as in with the sharpie dot idea, you could just say they are all signed and that way because they are such a limited card the signed copies lose no value, 3 years down the line though the unsigned copies surface and would easily be worth maybe up to 5 times the value of one of the signed copies at the time which I imagine would still be pretty high because of the known limited print numbers!

Yeah…that was just a thought. And not a very good one. I also thought of burning up on YouTube 97 copies that would make the remaining 3 worth a fortune lol.
I love collecting but I also love marketing;)

So evil. He he

The Mew is unbelievable man, I can’t even wait to see a photo of the card let alone think about having one myself. How many copies of it are there/will there be?

There’s 100 copies of the Mew, but it hasn’t surfaced yet. :c

[pokemontrader]

The way you can tell if something has surfaced or not is because the lovely @mavericknate has been updating bulbapedia with scans

[omahanime]

God forbid that some of you ever win.

[skinst]

Yes, this page. I’ve been checking it periodically.

I keep hearing a interesting rumor that someone has bought all the copies of Mew

[espeon1993]

hahah this is a interesting read https://www.reddit.com/r/pkmntcg/comments/3noe4n/art_academy_mew_prize_card/think we all know who bought them on here

Only one comment from one user saying they “remember reading” that someone bought out “one of the winners.” I highly doubt anyone has bought all the Mews let alone that they are a user here. That information is waay too vague to base anything off of.

If you read its not the Mew but I have seen the (rumor) someone has bought them all from one winner which can be very likely.

It sounds like their source is this site when Gary mentioned he offered 15k to a winner.

All this Art Academy BS reminds me of this painting:

[espeon1993]

lol your true there x its still off some have not surfaced but all I can think is some may be kids.

[patriotsfan117]

Imagine if there was a Charizard card… Good thing I only collect Zards lol. Seems like these Art Academy cards are a pain to track down (other than a few).

[pokemontrader]

@skinst who was bought out?

[skinst]

Oh that?

I was posting about Gary. I asked in private if he was talking about the Mew card, and he stated that it wasn’t.

I assume he will come in himself to say which card it was, when he’s ready to. -shrugs-
